Radosław Cierzniak (Polish pronunciation: [raˈdɔswaf ˈtɕɛʐɲak]; born April 24, 1983 in Szamocin) is a Polish footballer who plays as a goalkeeper for Legia Warsaw in the Ekstraklasa. He previously played for Scottish club Dundee United. He has been capped once for Poland.
Cierzniak started his career in the 2001-02 season and went on to play for a number of teams in both Poland and Ukraine, such as Obra Kościan, Sparta Oborniki, Volyn Lutsk, Karpaty Lviv, Amica Wronki and Lech Poznań. In 2002, he joined Volyn Lutsk on a one-year contract but lack of opportunities led him to returning to Poland by joining Stomil Olsztyn, where he made 13 appearances.
He then joined Aluminium Konin, where he became first choice goalkeeper and made 29 appearances. The club would finish in second place in the league. After 29 appearances at Aluminium Konin, he signed for Amica Wronki. He made his UEFA Cup debut against French side Auxerre, coming on as substitute for Arkadiusz Malarz after he had been injured, but only 9 minutes later, Cierzniak was sent off for professional foul. On 20 April 2005, he made his league debut in a 2-2 draw against Odra Wodzisław. The following season, he became the first-choice goalkeeper for the club.
